  How safe / stable is proton mail? Say they go under in 5 years are you just fucked? Or is your setup such that you could move easily? Also is your email just xxxx@proton.com? Or something longer?

    I don’t have a crystal ball but Proton is the go-to, privacy-focused email provider. They are based in Switzerland.

    They likely have a way for you to export your emails if they go under or use a desktop email client to archive them.

      It’s less the backup more all the stuff linked to your account. All the sign-ups if they go down fast… You’re fucked 😕

        I pay for LastPass and would never go back. I know there are other options that people will point out but I’m too invested now haha.

        I highly recommend getting LastPass or something similar. It was much easier to make the transition away from google products

    I have my own domain. So I’d lose my emails but I could just move the address. I’d recommend that for sure. In case you want to move to another bark provider down the line to it’s super simple
